Death hovers everywhere, READY TO STRIKE. WE shull see how long a people ruled by the grisly fear of death can hold out against MANY- PEOPLES fired by the knowledge of a Just cause and the desire for a better world. GIVE OUR POLICE A HAND I By Chariot V. Stantoe OUR state, county and city police authorities deserve a hand for the efficient manner in which they conducted the investigation into tho tragic death of 10-year-old Vera May Hall of Riverside, who was drowned last week in the South Umpqua river. Circumstances were such, even the position in which the body was found, that suspicion of foul play could not bo avoided. Clues were scarce but rumors were plentiful. The officers had been forced to resort to radio appeals for information, and the combination of radio and newspaper publicity brought many false leads. It is to the credit of the various departments that they cooperated as a unit and that every rumor and every state ment was investigated. Working day and night, almost continuously, the officers probed into every angle of the case Even though they had ample excuse upon which to cease their investigation, when given a pathologist's report that no evidence of crime could be produced in the autopsy, of ficers exhausted every possibility. Such efficiency should be a source of satisfaction to the law abiding and a cause for second thought by the evil inten- tioned. Accidental deaths frequently give peace officers occasion for much work. Often there are freakish conditions which seem to preclude accident and point to crime. We can remember one case in which the slip of a sur geon's knife probably saved a man from the gallows. An autopsy in a presumed case of poisoning was positively af firmative until as the investigation was nearly completed, the surgeon's scalpel slipped, something that seldom hap pens in such expert hands, and, as if guided by providence, evcaled a totally unsuspected cause for natural death. It is easy to presume criminal action in some unusual iccident cases, and it is good to know that we have officers who make their investigations complete and thorough, either to apprehend the guilty or to prove innocence. Portland Trims- ' Seattle; Angels Beaten by Seals l By the Associated Plena) Portland came from behind last night to dump Seattle 3-1, leaving the victors in fifth place and Seattle back In sixth a half game behind. Southpaw Holser was given credit for the win and Demoran charged with the defeat, al though neither hurler was around at the end of the contest. Hclser gave way with one out In the ninth when Seattle got the tying run in position to score and Liska checked the. rally with two straight outs. Demoran was bounced from the game In the eighth when he objected to a de cision at second base which would have retired the side and left the score tied. Elsewhere in the coast league, Hollywood made It 17 out of 18 over Oakland this, season when Kimball, a part-time hurler for the Stars, bested Salvo for a 4-2 win. San Diego broke its long losing streak with a 21 11-lnning win over Sacramento. 4:45 Music Of I the Record. 5:00 Bible Adventures, Pres- - byterian Church. 5:15 Superman. 6:30 Tom Mix, Ralston's Purina 5:45 Night News Wire, Stude baker. 6:00 Gabriel Heatter, Kreml. 6:15 Screen Test, Metro-Gold- wyn Mayer. 6:30 Double or Nothing, Feena mint. 7:00 State and Looal News, Keel Motor Co. 7:05 Musical Interlude. 7:15 Lowell Thomas, Standard Oil Co. 7:30 Lone Ranger. 8:00 Eye-Wltness News, Copco. 8:15- Stardust Serenade. 8:30 Name That Song, Cystex. 9:00 Alka Seltzer News. 9:15 HI Neighbor, Carstens Furniture Store. 9:30 Fulton Lewis, Jr., Kamp fer's 8av-Mor. 9:45 Music for the Night. 10:00 Sign off.

The Seals were trailing 3-2 in the last half of the ninth when Uhalt smashed out a triple to push over the tying counter. He scored later on an infield single. MEANWHILE War Secretary Stimson, freshly back from tho war fronts, (who talks little but invariably means' what he says), tells us what we must do. "Germany's" armies and her people," lie says, "arc shaken and' shot through with doubts. Hut in no sense are they broken." He continues: "There is only one sure stra tegy to finish this war with final ity and SPEED: that is for us and our allies to gear every resource we have in men and equipment In a final, unremitting assault on land, sea and In the air." He concludes: "Only when Germany and Ja pan see that they are about to be completely overpowered when that fact Is physically and unmistakably carried to their doorsteps then and then only will they collaspe." WHEN enough Germans have been killed, Ger many will quit. Not before. It will be helpful If Hitler, Gocrlng, Gocbbels and Himm Icr HELP US KILL GER MANS. IN the west and In the east oC Europe, this bloody business of German-killing goes on apace. Our Americans In Normandy go Into action again. U. S. tanks, with sharpshooling American in fantrynien riding them, break four miles into the Gentian de fenses beyond St. Lo on a front 2i miles wide. They are support ed by waves of bombers. The Germans fight with suici dal fury. AT the other end ol Hie Nor mandy line, the British and Canadians, who look I he often slve before, are fighting off Ger man counterattacks and consoll dating their positions. Montgomery is using the one two punch the British and Canadians one day, the Ameri cans the next. The Oregon State Highway commission engineers have perfected detailed plans for road construction which will provide a $50 million backlog to meet post war unemploy ment needs, it has been reported by T. IT. Banfield, chair man. The commission has made careful study of Oregon's highway needs and future requirements. After projecting a program of development, the commission instructed pre- aration of engineering detail. These finished plans are in commission files and any one or more can be started within a pace of a few weeks. Thus the State is prepared to meet j postwar unemployment emergencies on a grand scale. The! highway commission is to be commended for its efficient ap- proach to the problem. KRNR Mutual Broadcasting System, 1490 Kllooyolee. Senator Harry S. Truman, democratic nominee for vice president, declares it is "no secret" that his wife has been on the senate payroll as a clerk in liis office at $l,!)0Q a year. At least she stays home and works instead of galli vanting to the four corners of the earth. One of our readers wants to know if Hitler's statement that Germany is doomed for a thousand years, if defeated, means he expects the New Deal lo take over.

Lions Club Trims Kiwanians,10to6, In Softball Tilt Forrest Losee, Lions club cen ter fielder, defeated the Klwanis club last night as the Lions took a 7-lnning Softball game by a score of 10 to 6. The Kiwanians were well out in front in the early stages of the game, but their luck deserted them along with Abe Bean, who followed Bill Whipple to the bench, both vic tims of game legs. After being held scoreless for three innings, the Lions pushed over five runs in the fourth, one In the fifth and four in the sixth. The Klwan ians scored one In each of the first three innings, two in the fourth and one in the fifth, but were unable to reach the plate In either of the last two Innings. Losee's center! leld garden seemed to be a magnet for the Kiwanis club batters and he had a field day chasing fly balls, mak- nig five putouts. The Kiwanis club infield con tributed to the Lions club victory with five errors, while the Lions escaped with only two minor mis plays. Gilbo, pitching for the Lions, and Bill West for the Kiwanians, went the full route, but Helliwell, starting catcher for the Lions, called in Jim Bewley for relief. Ralph Church did the receiving chore for the Kiwanis club. The Kiwanians started out with West, pitching; Church, catching; Whipple, first base; Bean, sec ond base; Fries, third base; Bor ing, shortstop; Chapman, left field; Nelson, center field and Geddes, right field. When Whip ple went out with a strained leg, Boring shifted to first, putting Coughlan on short, while Fuller ton replaced Chapman, and Plum mer went into the game for Bean. Gilbo, pitching; Helliwell, catch ing; Pickens, first base; Dunham, second base; Schemer, third base; Sunderland, short shop Wicoff, left field; Losee, center field and Henry, right field, formed the starting lineup for the Lions, with Bewley replacing Helliwell; Doyle replacing Wicoff, and Far ris relieving Henry. Wally Rapp at the plate and Roy Bellows on the bases, both Kiwanians, escaped with no more than normal umpire baiting.
